FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Continental 80 is designed for lifestyle and casual use. They lack the technical support and cushioning required for running.
How do I keep the white leather clean?
Wipe them down regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting them in the washing machine.
Do these shoes run narrow or wide?
They generally fit true to size with a standard width that suits most foot shapes.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles can generally be removed if you need to use custom orthotics or replace them for extra comfort.
Are these made of real leather?
The Continental 80 series typically features a mix of leather and synthetic materials, consistent with its retro court style.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creasing.
Upper material becoming scuffed
Use a specialized leather eraser or a gentle cleaner to buff out surface-level scuffs without damaging the finish.
Laces becoming frayed
Replace the original laces with standard flat athletic laces of the same length for a refreshed look.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Continental 80 trainers stay in peak condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes fit true to size. Ensure you select your standard UK shoe size for the most comfortable fit.
- Cleaning: Given the white upper, wipe away dirt and grime after each wear using a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for trainers.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature yellowing or material degradation.
- Maintenance: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray to create a protective barrier against moisture and environmental debris.
